we went on a little family vacation to florida the week before last. kelley, me and our 3 little bambino's piled into our honda pilot. nice and snug with all our luggage, baby beds, double stroller, beach bags and golf clubs. we hadn't forgotten a thing! and if we had...there was no room left in the trunk! we left on saturday morning and by wednesday i was expecting my little monthly friend...and she was late. when she was still a "no show" by thursday evening i decided to do one of the things i dread most...the test!
needless to say...it was positive (as always) and it was positive again on friday...and again on saturday evening...and again last weekend. VERY positive! believe it or not, we were VERY shocked. this one (as always) was very unexpected. it's really become kind of comical just how fertile we are. without going into a lot of details, we DO take measures to avoid this. it's become very obvious that we are not always in control of our lives. our best laid plans will not always work out exactly the way we hoped or wanted. but don't bless my heart. it may take a little adjusting, but i LOVE it!!
so, we are still in quite a bit of shock, but (at least i have) moved into excitement too! kelley, my faithful, hardworking provider is definitely on the stressed side of shock. but, like i told him, as shocked, surprised, caught off guard as we are, God is not, at all! He knows our wants, needs, income, square footage and vehicle situation. none of this has caught Him off guard at all. i'm not in the least bit worried. He is faithful to provide, and as far as i'm concerned the more impossible it seems, the bigger work He can do!
so, it's looking like hendrix baby #4 will be due on may 5, 2010. i go to the dr. at the end of the month. so far, i'm feeling pretty good. i've had a few fleeting moments of nausea, but i'm only 6 weeks today, so we'll see if that lasts or gets worse. i'll keep the pregnancy updates and all the other craziness coming. this should be interesting!:)
